Create a stacked bar plot in a few simple clicks in the R2

Create a stacked bar plot in a few simple clicks in the R2 Genomics Analysis & Visualization platform (https://r2.amc.nl).

Just see the whole process in action in the illustration below.


The R2 open access online data science platform, designed for biomedical researchers, has more than 2,600 public resources (totalling >4,000,000 samples combined) available for instant analysis.

Academic usage of R2 is free, so direct your browser to https://r2.amc.nl and start exploring TCGA, DepMap, GTeX or one of the other 2,600 resources.

Plotting updates for the open online R2platform. The data science platform for biomedical researchers

Image
  Ploting updates for the R2platform We have been working hard to bring you the latest update in the R2 genomics analysis and visualization platform ( https://r2.amc.nl ); the goto web-tool for biomedical researchers to test their hypotheses on public omics data, without the need for bioinformatics or coding expertise. In the latest update, we have made substantial changes to many of the plots that can be produced within R2. Many of the adaptable parameters have now become interactive and are placed under the 'gears' icon. The 'gears' icon Let's have a look at a gene within one of the many resources that are publicly available in R2. We will look at the GATA3 gene in an integrated resouce where samples from both GTEx as well as the TCGA have been integrated and 'batch corrected' to get an immersive view of expression in normal as well as cancer samples. We first select our resource of interest by clicking on 'select a data set'. and then find the ...

Create a visual Fisher's Exact plot in a few simple clicks in the R2 Genomics Analysis & Visualization platform

Create a visual Fisher's Exact plot in a few simple clicks in the R2 Genomics Analysis & Visualization platform ( https://r2.amc.nl ). The data science platform that has been completely designed with the biomedical researcher in mind. This means that no coding or bioinformatics expertise is needed to operate the R2platform. Everything can be assessed by dropdown menu's and interlinked interactive visualizations. Just see the whole process in action in the illustration below. The Fisher's Exact test is often used to demonstrate whether the proportions of 2 different categorical variables are equal to the expectation. A significant p-value then informs you that this is unlikely (when used as a 2-sided test). Within R2, we added a visual element to such a test, where you can see the different groups in the contingency table as separate dots. These dots, are linked to actual samples in the data set, and can thus also be decorated using their meta data (color by a grouping v...

TCGA Barcodes (Sample Types)

Image
The Cancer Genome Atlas Program (TCGA) is one of the cornerstones of cancer research. Every sample has a unique identifier, also known as barcode. A basic understanding of the naming convention is very helpful to quickly assess the 'type of sample' that you are working with. The sample type is contained in the numerical part of the 4th element of a barcode, that can be up to 7 parts. Barcodes most commonly are composed of 4 parts, which is informative for most use cases. Code Definition 1 Primary Solid Tumor 2 Recurrent Solid Tumor 3 Primary Blood Derived Cancer - Peripheral Blood 4 Recurrent Blood Derived Cancer - Bone Marrow 5 Additional - New Primary 6 Metastatic 7 Additional Metastatic 8 Human Tumor Original Cells 9 Primary Blood Derived Cancer - Bone Marrow 10 Blood Derived Normal 11 Solid Tissue Normal 12 Buccal Cell Normal 13 EBV Immortalized Normal 14 Bone Marrow Normal 15 sample type 15 16 sample type 16 20 Control Analyte 40 Recur...
